Today I moved my installation from the LSC Plaza to the intersection of the BSB, Eddy, and Clark C. I am moving my installation on the Sunday's and Wednesday's of this project because I want to keep people on their toes. If the installation were to stay in one place for the entire two weeks, people would become accustomed to its presence. I want different forms of the installation to occur as well. I can accomplish the documented form above in a tree, but not on a lamp post.

I had many realizations today. A metacognition about how I show up in the space collecting observed data only. How shifting my focus completely onto my installation and if people notice it or not versus why people are noticing me. How my appearance choices attract attention to me and away from my installation if I sit too close to it. How people notice my installation first and say something and then notice me watching them notice my installation. They almost seem "caught" and move on.

I realized I can describe my choices and decisions in this project much better after moving the installation.
